Akron starting quarterback Chris Jacquemain has been dismissed from the team for an unspecified violation of team rules. Assistant coach Reno Ferri was also placed on administrative leave and suspended with pay pending an internal review of NCAA compliance requirements.

ESPN.com's Adam Rittenberg reports that Akron has suspended starting quarterback Chris Jacquemain for an indefinite amount of time, starting with tomorrow's game against Indiana. Matt Rodgers will start.

This is a big blow for Akron, and it will likely have an adverse effect on the fantasy production of wide receiver Deryn Bowser. Fri, Sep 18, 2009 09:00:00 PM

Jacquemain played respectably in a 31-7 loss to Penn State in Week One - 158 yards, one touchdown, one interception - but showed that he could be a solid statistical play in a more favorable matchup like this afternoon's. Indiana is up next in a very winnable game for the Zips, with Jacquemain seemingly a solid start for fantasy owners needing a performer in a pinch in Week Three. Sat, Sep 12, 2009 07:15:00 PM

Akron has named former Miami (OH) head coach Shane Montgomery as its new offensive coordinator, and he'll team with former Pitt and Stanford head man Walt Harris who'll serve as quarterbacks coach/passing game coordinator.

These is a pretty impressive offensive brain trust, and we expect to see a bump in Chris Jacquemain's passing stats in 2009 thanks to these moves. Tue, Feb 17, 2009 06:30:00 PM
